IND vs WI Test Series: The second and last match of the two-Test series between India and West Indies will be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi from October 10. After the resounding victory in Ahmedabad, Team India is ahead in the series by 1-0. Now the focus will be on winning this match and making a clean sweep. However, the focus of the team management will not only be on victory but also on the workload management of the players.
This player is sure to get rest
One of the biggest questions of the team is the rotation of fast bowlers. Jasprit Bumrah showed excellent form in the first test and has returned with full fitness. He has been rested from the ODI series against Australia, which indicates that he can play in the Delhi Test.
At the same time, the rest of Mohammad Siraj is being seriously considered. Siraj is an important part of the Australia ODI series starting next week. The team management does not want the overload on Siraj to increase, so it is possible that he may be given rest.
If Siraj gets rest, then Prasidh Krishna may get a chance, who will play his first Test on Indian soil. He has consistently bowled impressively in the nets and the team management is in a mood to repose confidence in him.
The magic of the spin trio will be seen again on the Delhi pitch.
Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium is traditionally considered a paradise for spinners. On the black soil pitch here, the ball takes turn from the very beginning, which helps the spin bowlers a lot. India had defeated Australia within three days on the same ground in 2023, in that match the team had played three spinners.
In such a situation, it is expected that India will once again field the spin trio of Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav and Washington Sundar. These three have proved to be lethal on the home ground, having performed brilliantly in the recent matches.
Less possibility of change in batting order
After the spectacular victory in the first Test, there is no possibility of major changes in the batting order. The opening pair of Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul will remain intact. At the same time, captain Shubman Gill and wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurel will strengthen the middle order.
Probable Indian playing XI for the second test
Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Sai Sudarshan, Shubman Gill (captain), Dhruv Jurel, Ravindra Jadeja (vice-captain), Nitish Kumar Reddy, Washington Sundar, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Prasidh Krishna.
